Sunny: no, because she believes she was still in the Q-Room when lil A’Sawi showed up, and she has giving zero hint that she recognizes either Widdle Pwant as being her younger self, or A’Sawi as being her older sister

Is Little Plant Pickle out where the fighting is taking place or is she in with Lil’ Atsali? I have a bad feeling about this … if she is too young to fully understand who’s a threat & who’s a protector, Little Plant could have over reacted and “nuked” the room. Oh … I hope I’m VERY wrong. Poor tween Pickle may have been too young to remember her actions of that night or blanked them out entirely. Whatever happened, she is going to greatly regret having to witness the next few minutes … and be powerless to stop it.

How much in the way of defenses did Little Plant actually have? The first time we ever saw Castela plasma-blast anything, was well after she was adopted by Kath, and it completely surprised her. She may have been quite helpless as a little baby potted plant.

Yes, but she’s been a tangle of Vines, complete with _thorns_, ever since we 1st met her. The plasma came later. (Recall the Sisterly Tussle they were getting into when Katerine lowered the Mother-Voice Boom of Doom?)

Pickle has to realize that she’s just an observer in the room, and she can affect nothing that happens there. (It’s kind of like an ST holodeck, only everything ignores her presence.) The images will probably just pass thru her.

I mean, we take it as a given that she’s an orphan; she couldn’t have gone to the orphanage or been adopted unless all her living relatives were gone. In this comic (http://wapsisquare.com/comic/never-be-a-weapon/) they describe Atsali and Castela as the only survivors of what we’re seeing replayed now. But we don’t actually see, directly or indirectly, what became of Walter. Curious.

I think, until we find out otherwise, that the best we can ass-u-me is that Walter is one of the bodies under a sheet when the ‘Good Guys’ are walking the scene and talking of removing heads as a reminder not to be stupid in the future, going forward…

I think Pickle is in serious denial right now. If a grown adult doesnt address you or a lil adorable child with your sis name more likely than not you are not “there”. Doesnt mean the events taking place in front of her are not gonna hurt…. ouch @-@
